    You should tell us, what reason Adobe gave you. I assume, this is technical issues for your 2 pictures.

     

    First picture: Artefacts due to a small sensor camera and because of noise reduction. The image is out of focus, not sharp. You have additionally an IP problem. All logos need to go. 

     

    Second: Artefacts, not really in focus, missing contrast and probably also IP problems (number on house block, logos ob boxes). I'm not sure if a model release would be required.

    Hello,

    The pictures are fine - just not for stock! The quality does not meet the Adobe Stock quality standards.

    I agree with this. On social media, they will get a lot of likes.

    The first image is not sharply focused, has leaning verticals and slightly underexposed shadows. This image also exhibits IP issues, and all of the signs and logos would have to be edited out. The second image is also not sharply focused. The rows of green crops, for instance, are just green blobs of color with little detail.
